EDGEMONT PROVIDES UPDATES ON TRANSACTION WITH LAIVA GOLD

Edgemont Gold Corp. is providing an update on certain matters relating to its reverse takeover transaction with Laiva Gold Inc. As previously announced, Laiva is undertaking an additional financing round prior to completion of the transaction. The financing is on a non-brokered basis and consists of an offering of common shares of Laiva at a price of $1.50 per common share. The financing will complete prior to completion of the transaction and investors in the financing will participate in the transaction. In addition, Laiva may pay certain finders cash fees and finders' warrants in connection with the financing. In order to accommodate the financing and to permit the completion of certain audited financial-statement requirements for the transaction, the previously announced closing date will be revised to a date to be determined in July, 2026. Final completion of the transaction remains subject to final approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange.

About Laiva

Upon completion of the transaction, the resulting issuer will indirectly own the Laiva mine in Finland. The Laiva mine is an open-pit operation, fully equipped with one of the largest gold plants in Europe (6,000-tonne-per-day capacity).
